Abstract

During the last decade, the World Health Organization has paid increasing attention to some reliable methods of birth control based on periodic abstinence. There are 2 main methods of natural family planning--the Sympto-Thermal method and the Billings Ovulation method. The latter is explained in this paper. Its scientific basis, use, effectiveness, and importance as a birth control method as well as for understanding certain types of infertility are discussed. (author's)
